43. It is, as you say THE UNITED STATES. If they want to wave a flag
I would suggest it be that one of the country in which they want to live. And before you think about saying anything I want to tell you that I have seen the American flags being waved as a tribute to this country and the opportunity that they think it has to offer. In fact, I would think that the wiser heads amongst the demonstrators would discourage (firmly I might add) the Mexican flag waving if not for any other reason that the resentment it causes.

And something that the pro-illegal people never ever seem to want to explain is AT WHAT POINT do we say enough and try to reign in the ILLEGAL entry into this country. Do you think that we can just absorb every single poor person who can manage to make it across our borders? And I don't just mean our southern borders, although that is the one that is generally being accessed.
